maternal hydration

Are there any risks associated with overhydration during pregnancy?

While maintaining proper hydration is essential, overhydration can also be problematic. Excessive water intake can lead to a condition called water intoxication or hyponatremia, where the body's salt balance is disrupted. This can cause symptoms like headache, nausea, and in severe cases, seizures. Pregnant women should aim for balanced hydration and consult healthcare providers for personalized advice.
